There are powders to add to your formula / breast milk to introduce allergens early (we used Ready Set Food but easy to DIY). Kind of annoying since they often clog the nipple of the bottle, but we did it with my daughter who is now 20

Yes but that money went to the working groups who need it more than silly bridges.

Related question. Why is it that those damn strings break off after a few years? There must be a better way of attaching. Drives me nuts.

This is now the recommendation. Companies even make allergen packets to add to your baby’s breast milk / formula / early foods for gradual and systemic exposure.

In my small community we have a weekly paper that they deliver every Friday for free. I love it. It was recently bought out and the quality has gone down hill, but I still enjoy reading about what’s going on hyper locally. I’m the minority

From this article “Female suicides decrease by 8% to 16%”. Yet, from another study “In the United States, the rate of suicide among persons who are divorced or separated is usually reported as about 2.4 times greater than the suicide rate f

Nothing was worse than a clean bulk. But deadlifting 405 and seeing the bar bend was an amazing feeling.

I have found they are so much better in practice than initial reviews made them out to be. I quickly forgot it was a persona when FaceTiming with another person in the AVP. The flat screenshots look terrible. The fully dimensional version i

Loved Valheim!!! Forgot about that one too. I wish my friends enjoyed these games, as I'd have double the hours in. Playing solo does put an upper bound to how long I enjoy them.

Between MineCraft, Ark, Satisfactory, DSP and now Palworld I bet I have 1,000 hours into tree punching games which is kind of nuts to think about. Really scratches the itch for me.

You captured my feeling perfectly. In particular >> While your then-PDA may have supported 3G and came with many other capabilities the first iPhone lacked, there were certain things in regard to build, design, usability and intuitive

Our food system is pretty well poisoned. You have to be incredibly intentional, and even then it’s hard to escape all of the negative effects.

I need to get back on this. I ran PiHole for years which worked really well. Something broke with my network which messed up IP provisioning and the PiHole got permanently disabled. Is there a particular guide you followed or did you put th

Im in the midst of reading Pinkers the Language Instinct and the basic thesis is that language is innate. Preventing language would be like preventing eating. The sing-song thing is cultural but powerful. It’s hard (for me) to not default t

"Under state law, the identities of those who nominated the land for oil and gas drilling are confidential" Gotta love it.

The best we can do is model good habits and provide a solid foundation. I remember in high school I had a stint of having crouton salads for lunch. That’s exactly as it sounds.

My plan for tv is to start with Season 1 of Sesame Street from the 1970s which is on HBO Max. Work up from there. But yah it’s going to be hard.

Not to be a jerk, but just don’t ever introduce the concept of pouches. We bought a few when we started to transition to solids but never used them. Our one year old eats the protein we are eating (and has since about six months) and then h

While the complaints about performance are valid, I’m still having a blast with the game. Having an 11 month old means it’s hard to go deep into something like Cyberpunk since I only get short gaming bursts (ie 7:30 when she goes to bed unt

Got my second bout of COVID two weeks ago and my resting heart rate has been about 10BMP higher ever since (normal 55, now 65+). I only missed two days of workouts, but had much lower volume for over a week. A quick google search shows this

Since we are talking dental health, any insights into gingival recession? I think my gums have receded due to brushing them too hard over the years. You can’t tell unless you flip my gums back.

I’m reading Kurosawa’s autobiography and, somewhat related to this post, I found it interesting that his brother was a regionally famous narrator for silent films. When talkies exploded on the scene he committed suicide because of it.

Not going to lie, TikTok served me some clips of the Battleship movie and I ended up watching it. I never would have otherwise considered it. Certainly not a good movie but an easy mindless watch. Exactly what I’d except from TikTok
